500th Time Reborn, A World Only Known By Women: The Karma System

I effortlessly dodged their attacks while dealing out my own, and soon both of them were on the ground covered in bruises with stars appearing all over their bodies as well. I was about to finish them off when a voice stopped me.

"That is enough," Fate said as he walked into the arena followed by his sister, Luck, Destiny, and Murphy. "You have both proven yourselves worthy, and I think that we can come to an Agreement."

I looked at him for a moment before smirking and leaping off of Sagittarius\'s back while transforming back into my normal body. I brushed my hand over my soft white tail, thinking about going back to the back smooth one while they all watched with bemusement, but when I was done, Fate stepped forward.

"My sister has something that she would like to say," he said, motioning for Karma to step forward, which she did after taking a deep breath.

This was strange, but maybe I had earned an extra bonus?

"I am sorry for the way that my brother has treated you. as a reward, we would like to come with you to the mortal realm," Karma said, and I just stared at her.

"We? You don\'t mean Fate and Murphy as well, right? You know what they would have to do, right?" I asked, looking at Fate. "You know that you will have to become a woman, right?"

"I can see many things that can go wrong here, so things feel like where I should be. I have never been a girl before, and going to the mortal world sounds like it will create all sorts of problems. When do we leave?" Murphy asked, and Fate flinched back.

"What are you talking about?!" Fate demanded, but I shook my finger at him.

"Don\'t play silly. This is the Mortal Realm of the Goddesses. No boys allowed," I said, and Fate threw up his hands.

"You are just making things up! You are a man, and you are in this world!" Fate declared that he had solved world hunger and peace in a single stroke.

"No you dope, I was born into this world, and I am the defender of the Mortal Realms, duh. If you are coming, you have to talk to my father, but now I am going to do what I came here to do!" I snapped, but then snapped my fingers, and Sagittarius and Scorpio returned to normal. Then I jumped back over to where Cancer was sitting with her fist held at her mouth like she couldn\'t believe what was happening.

"Hey, Honey," I said softly as I held my hand out to her, and she looked up at me with tear-filled eyes before throwing herself into my arms. "I told you I would be back."

"What are we supposed to do now?" Cancer asked as she shyly took my hand, but I pulled her into my chest as a portal opened behind me, and I tipped back and let us both fall into it.

I dropped out over my massive island that was filled with smaller floating islands that were all connected by small pathways. Cancer clung to me, and I opened another portal, but it shot us out at an angle, and I landed lightly on a beach, still holding on to Cancer.

I looked around at the massive palace that towered above everything on this small floating world as I started walking down the beach, still holding her hand. The background was all stars and planets that circled around us.

"I don\'t think that you have ever been here, have you?" I asked, and Cancer shook her head no as she looked around with wide eyes, and I chuckled. "This is my place."

"It is so beautiful," Cancer said as we continued to walk down the beach. "I always wondered what your home was like, but I never wanted to intrude. I was with Scorpio, but now things are finally different. I have always respected how much work you do to help people, but I was just never sure if you actually cared. You were just so distant."

"I am sorry, but I have always had to go down and help worlds, but I never had any memories of them. It was all confusing for me, and I had the other girls and Virgo, but I was done with her. I was just a toy for her, and I am not going to let her use me anymore." I said, and Cancer hugged me from the side.

"I am sorry that it took me so long to see it," Cancer said as she rested her head on my shoulder. "I think that we all got too comfortable with you always being there for us, but we never really tried to get to know you."

"It is okay. I am just glad that things are different now," I said as we finally made it down the beach and into my palace, where everything was white and shiny. The furnishings were all modern but still had a classical feel to them as well, but what really caught your eye was the massive windows that looked out over the stars and planets.

"This is amazing," Cancer said as she walked over to one of the windows and looked out at the view. "It is so beautiful."

"I designed it to have many places to relax, play, and have private time," I said as I walked up behind her and wrapped my arms around her waist. "I wanted it to be a place where people could come and just let go of everything. No worries, no stress, just fun."

"It is perfect," Cancer said as she turned in my arms to face me. "Thank you for showing it to me."

"I wanted to show you something else as well," I said before kissing her on the forehead and leading her down one of the many halls until we came to a door. I opened it and gestured for her to go in, and she did with a smile on her face.
